Problems solved by technology

Overall, the effective nonlinear optical coefficients of the above-mentioned crystals are generally not high, and KDP and ADP crystals have deliquescent properties, while Gd x Y 1-x COB crystals have high dependence on components and are prone to gray stain damage when irradiated by ultraviolet light. These factors limit the application of the above devices to varying degrees. It is expected to make up for the above deficiencies by finding new nonlinear crystals and cutting shapes.

When the fundamental-frequency optical wavelength is gradually increased from 750 nm to 1200 nm, the phase-matching angle theta of the BBO crystal is gradually decreased from 42.1-52.1 degrees to 24.2-34.2 degrees, and the azimuth angle phi of the BBO crystal is 6-16 degrees; the length of the BBO crystal in the optical direction is 6-14 mm. The single BBO crystal can achieve high-efficiency cascade triple frequency of nearinfrared laser of wave bands, and ultraviolet or purple laser is output. The prepared triple-frequency optical converter has the advantages of being low in cost, high in anti-optical-damage threshold,wide in available band, large in effective nonlinear optical coefficient, large in output energy, high in conversion efficiency and the like, and the overall performance of the triple-frequency optical converter is superior to that of similar components made from ADP or KDP or GdxY1-xCOB crystals.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a special angle-cut BBO crystal, a triple-frequency optical converter and a working method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of laser and nonlinear optics. Background technique [0002] At present, bulk nonlinear optics (NLO) crystals are still the main medium for optical frequency upconversion, and KTP, KDP, BBO, LBO, etc. are commonly used. For the triple frequency (THG) of near-infrared lasers, it is usually realized by cascading frequency conversion. Traditionally, two nonlinear optical crystals are required: the first crystal generates frequency doubled waves (SHG), and the second one generates fundamental frequency waves. Perform a sum frequency (SFG) with an octave wave to produce a triple frequency wave. [0003] Chinese patent document CN105911793A discloses a cascaded optical frequency converter based on a single phosphate crystal and its application. The optical frequency converter includes a first beam s...
